CH. 13
As soon as Fox got home, he threw himself on the couch.
What a night. He thought to himself. I still can't believe me and Dylan's friendship had to come to that.
Fox secretly felt bad for Dylan and how bad his life was going, but in the back of his mind he still felt it didn't justify for what he did to him and Theresa.
"Theresa!" Fox suddenly remembered. "O my god I completely forgot, how am I going to make you forgive me?"
Suddenly Fox heard the familiar chiming noise come from his computer.
"You've got mail!" it sang.
Fox walked over to the computer and sat down, opening the "new mail" folder. It was Chad.
Hey Man,
How's everything going? Listen just to let you know, Whitney just informed me that she talked to Theresa and I hate to tell you this, but she's really broken up. Whitney said she cried for hours. But Whitney also told me that Theresa revealed that she loved you! Then again, she also said that you betrayed her. But here's what I was thinking. If Theresa could admit that she loved you that means there's still some hope for you two. So maybe you should write a letter to her, totally spilling your heart out. That way she HAS to listen. Let me know what you decide, and good luck.
Chad.
"Chad you're a genius!" Fox smiled. "That's an awesome idea."
Right away, he opened up a new word document and began typing.
Dear Theresa,
Well I'm already considering myself lucky, because if you're reading this that means you've considered to hear me out. Thank you. Theresa, you know I'm not that good with my words, but I'm going to try my hardest to reach out to you sweetheart. First of all, I just want you to know how unbearably sorry I am. I know that I hurt you tremendously, and I could never forgive myself for that. I hope you know that I would never intentionally hurt a hair on your head. But I guess I have.
I'm not just writing this letter to you, in hopes that you would forgive me. I'm writing this because I feel that I owe you that much. Theresa, I'm not going to lie to you. I did write that email to Dylan. But like I told you, I did that a long time ago. I know that doesn't justify me hurting you, and you have to believe that that is not what I'm trying to say. Theresa, when I met you I was nothing like the guy that I am today. I loved to party, I loved going to clubs and meeting girls. I didn't really care about anyone's feelings or the effect that my words had on them. I was your basic creep. But a lot of my behavior was as a result of the lack of love that I had in my heart. I never came from two loving parents who told me they loved me everyday. Being a Crane child means you have to learn to grow up without ever receiving a pat on the back consoling good work. The first days I came out to Harmony, I had no idea that I would ever meet such loving and caring people as you Whitney, and Chad. You guys are the main reason for the person that I am today. More importantly you and that amazing son of yours has taught me to love again. I gave up on love a long time ago, but you two opened my eyes. I could never express how happy you two have made me, and I hope that maybe one day I could repay you.
As for my what I did, I can only beg with everything I have for your forgiveness. When I wrote that email to Dylan, I was an ignorant, inexperienced, inconsiderate fool, who didn't realize that he would be hurting the two most important people in his life. I am so unbelievably sorry Theresa. I don't know what else to say except... please forgive me. If you do, I will spend the rest of my life making up the pain that I caused you. You both mean everything to me, and I can't imagine my life without you.
If you accept my apology, please meet me at the wharf tomorrow night at 8- oclock. If I don't see you, I'll assume that you haven't forgiven me, and I'll accept it because I guess I deserve it. It just won't be very easy.
Love Always,
Fox
When he finished, Fox forwarded the email to Chad.
Hey Chad,
I decided to take your advice and write Theresa a letter. If you can't do it (because I know you're a busy man) please ask Whitney to give this to Theresa. I'd do it myself, but she'd probably slam the door in my face. Thanks in advance.
Fox
Fox sent the email and let out a deep breath.
"I guess now all I can do is wait... and hope for the best."
As soon as Fox got home, he threw himself on the couch.
